castle brunow (schloss braunau) + lodz + taraska, PL

there are more braunaus in the world than just hitler's birth city braunau am inn in today's austria (AT), you know? where? 

  • braunau (called broumov today) in the czech republic, CZ. we have visited the beautiful nearby rock formations in adersbach few years ago
  • braunau (called brunow today) in poland, PL. we've just spent 2 nights in this castle hotel in silesia aka schloss braunau in schlesien aka slask aka silesia
~~~

well, in lower silesia (niederslesien, slask dolny) we have also visited:
    • small nearby city lwowek slaski (löwenberg)
    • the castle grodziec (gröditzburg) in grodziec (gröditzberg)
    • city of boleslawiec (bunzlau)
  • later in central poland:
    • castle malkow ~ just a nice lunch break and walk in its gardens
    • village glinno + lake jeziorsko 
    • lodz
    • ruda bugaj
    • castle sulejow + swimming in the pilica river
    • the art of living's ashram in taraska
i'll most likely upload pictures + insights from poland later ... much later ... most likely in the cold + rainy autumn evenings. do you agree? 😇

let's tank up some gas in southern PL (upper silesia) before we enter the czech republic
eastern germany close to plauen (i guess) on our way TO poland.
it was very close to the highway and it looks really nice, but because 
of algae (algen) we couldnt swimm out there 🐋
